  • Page 7: Mounting

    MOUNTING The unit is designed to be mounted with a gasket providing a water tight seal. Two mounting brackets are provided to secure the unit to the panel. A panel less than .1" may distort if the clamps are screwed too tightly. Slide the body of the unit through the rubber gasket.
  • Page 8: Wiring

    WIRING The rear terminal contains 12 screw terminals for connecting #14 to #28 gauge wire. The unit is controlled by a microprocessor and, therefore, an electrically "noisy" environment could cause operating problems. The input power line should not be common to power lines for motors, pumps, contactors, etc. The unit is designed to be immune from line or RF voltage interference.
  • Page 9 WIRING (continued) AC / DC Power Connections NOTE: Connect power only after other connections are finished. Do not touch the live AC power terminals! The unit has been designed with an isolated AC input. Thus, polarity is not a concern for the AC input. Connect AC power to pins 11 and 12. The chassis is plastic, therefore earth ground is not used.

    THEORY OF OPERATION Batching Relay B Operation After the batcher has been programmed, it will operate Relay B can be programmed as a prewarn relay or as follows: grand total/batch counter alarm. The unit will reset to "0" (count up mode) or load When Relay B is set for Prewarn, Relay B will ener- Preset A (count down mode) when RESET/STOP is gized when the batcher is started.

(RATE DISPLAY ONLY) LOCK - This portion of the menu allows you to set lock functions (Lock functions apply only to front panel) 1) lock the program (Preset A is still accessible) 2) lock all (locks program &...
  • Page 15: Calculating Scale Factors

    CALCULATING SCALE FACTORS The unit has a programmable scale factor to scale the input pulses. It is a 5 digit , floating decimal divider factor. The fac t or to enter is the number of pulses per the desired unit of measurement. The factor ranges from 0.0001 to 99999. Scale factor calculations are simple.
